I have often noticed that when people consider the strongest characters in NV Sanshouo no Hanzo is often ignored despite being the guy who actually conferred the title to the Sannins. If he is to be compared with other characters where would you place him in terms of strength and power? I certainly feel so that his summoning is the strongest except for maybe animal path summons but that too is debatable.

Hanzo was just above Sannin level and one of my favourite characters. Let's get to work.

-Hanzo was revived and took up an entire battlefield whilst being incredibly out of his prime.

-His presence incited a similar legendary surrender of the likes of Madara or Hashirama.

-Was only defeated by an enemy who wasn't affected by Poison Mist. (Pain bodies were corpses)

-He would often paralyse and kill people who sat in the same room as him even when he wore his mask.

-Was one of the only strong ninja who could actually resist Edo Tensei properly, putting him in a resistance hype league with Madara.

-Because of his presence, a small village like the Rain could actually contend with the 5 great Shinobi Nations during the 2nd Ninja War.

-Was on par with Mifune, the master of Kenjutsu whilst resisting Edo Tensei, telling Mifune what he was going to do next.
-Did this all out of his prime as an out-of-work old man and a SICKLE.

In short Hanzo is a monster and whilst only just missing the Top 10, can absolutely take out stronger ninja than himself considering his explosive style, insane kenjutsu skills and overwhelming Poison Mist...which with Ibuse can flood out any giant battlefield in moments. He's a ninja that instantly sets up conditions and only a few ninja have precautions against it. Hanzo is weaker than quite a few but he wins 95% of his battles in the NV.

Maybe the second time round after Hanzo had given him the antidote. And still Hanzo was telling him how to do it.
either way Mifune had trained his blade for years for such to never happen again :sdo:
unless you don't get the point of their fighting :coffee:


Stick to spewing racist elitist garbage in the General Discussion troll

Correct. And yet STILL the out-of-work sickle-wielding ninja had to warn him about his strikes and tell him how to defeat him.
I think I know my favourite battle in the series...

Doesn't really apply to this situation but okay, sick 14 year old vocabulary there bud ;D y'see why people think you're younger than you are?

I'd put him at the Kage level. He was able to fight all 3 Sannin with seemingly relative ease . Since Hiruzen, a Kage, trained them and Hanzo faced all 3 of them alone and still came out on top. I'd say he is, at the very best, Kage level, he did name Orochimaru, Tsunade, and Jiraiyah Sannin after all. So I put him up there with Hiruzen.

i think Hanzo is just an head ninja from small village stuck in big village. He is noble because of his ideals of peace during period of war not a power. During bigger nation clashing each other Hanzo cant give a shit he just stood. He cannot win against legendary Sannin and he even cannot damage single on pain so he is weaker than Jiraiya. His summon Salamander also not among summon that able to use senjutsu from sage region i will say he is legend by his own but not so powerful the only person i can see same level as him is Chiyo Ba, Danzo and Hiruzen.
